# Run Desktop App
./gradlew :desktopApp:run

# Package Linux AppImage
./gradlew :desktopApp:createAppImageLocal

# Package macOS DMG (macOS only)
./gradlew :desktopApp:packageReleaseDmg

# Package Windows Zip
./gradlew :desktopApp:createDistributable

The macOS DMG is unsigned, like the iOS IPA: there is no codesign identity or notarisation in the build, so macOS will need xattr -d com.apple.quarantine after first download.

# For assembling the debug APK
